Section 1.2 Anatomy – branch of science that deals with the structure (morphology) of body parts. Their forms and how they are organized Physiology – the functions of body parts What they do and how they do it
3
Vocabulary Abdominopelvic Absorption Anatomy Appendicular Assimilation Axial Circulation Digestion Excretion Homeostasis Metabolism Negative feedback Organelle Organism Parietal Pericardial Peritoneal Physiology Pleural Reproduction Respiration Thoracic Visceral Movement Responsiveness Growth Atoms Molecules Macromolecules Cell Organelles Tissue Organs Organ systems Organism Dorsal cavity Ventral cavity Cranial cavity Vertebral canal Mediastinum Abdominal cavity Pelvic cavity Oral cavity Nasal cavity Orbital cavity Middle ear cavities Sagittal Transverse Coronal
4
Abdominopelvic – contains the abdominal and pelvic cavities Absorption – the passage of nutrients through the intestine Anatomy – the structure of body parts & how they are organized
5
Terms Used for Body Parts & Regions - Front Otic (ear) Nasal (nose) Oral (mouth) Cervical (neck) Acromial (point of shoulder) Axillary (armpit) Mammary (breast) Brachial (arm) Antecubital (front of elbow) Abdominal (abdomen) Antebrachial (forearm) Carpal (wrist) Palmar (palm) Digital (finger) Genital (reproductive organs) Patellar (front of knee) Crural (leg) Tarsal (ankle) Pedal (foot) Umbilical (navel) Coxal (hip) Inguinal (groin) Pectoral region (chest) Sternal (sternum) Mental (chin) Buccal (cheek) Orbital (eye cavity) Frontal (forehead) Cephalic (head)
6
Terms Used to Describe Body Parts & Regions - Posterior Occipital (back of head) Vertebral (spinal column) Cubital (elbow) Dorsum (back) Lumbar (lower back) Sacral (b/t hips) Gluteal (buttocks) Perineal (b/t legs) Femoral (thigh) Popliteal (back of knee) Plantar (sole)
7
Organ Systems Integumentary System – skin, hair, nails, sweat glands, & sebaceous glands Protection, regulate body temp, house sensory receptors Skeletal System – bones, ligaments, & cartilage Provide framework & protective shield for softer tissues
8
Muscular System – muscles Provide forces that cause body movements Nervous System – brain, spinal cord, nerves & sense organs Detect changes in and out of the body, muscle contraction Endocrine System – glands that secrete chemical messengers (hormones)
9
Organ Systems Cardiovascular System – heart, arteries, veins, capillaries, & blood Transporting gases, nutrients, hormones & wastes Lymphatic System – lymph nodes, thymus gland, & spleen Defend body against infections Digestive System – mouth, tongue, teeth, salivary glands, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, small & large intestines Breaks down food to absorb nutrients and oxygen, excretes various wastes
10
Organ Systems Respiratory System – nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, lungs Take air in and out, exchange gases b/t blood and the air Urinary System – kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder & urethra Remove wastes from the blood and excrete urine
11
Organ Systems Reproductive System – produce offspring similar to the parents Male: scrotum, testes, epididymides, vasa deferentia, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, penis, and urethra Female: ovaries, uterine tubes, uterus vagina, clitoris & vulva
